Chapter 581 Xi Manor Belongs to Rui

"Mother, how are you feeling now?"

Li Rui asked her mother as soon as she sat down on the chair in front of her. Yi Jie smiled lightly as she looked at her daughter with soft eyes that were filled with motherly love.

"Better than before."

Her voice was a little hoarse and weak indicating very well that the poison had made her lose her health to some extent and it would take her a great time to recover it again.

General Li hid the distress he was feeling for his wife and draped the blanket with which he had covered her straight though it didn\'t even move from its place.

"You will be like before in a few days."

He said firmly and Yi Jie nodded her head at her husband\'s words knowing very well what was going on inside his heart and mind.

After that, she looked at Li Rui again.

Her eyes unconsciously started to fill with tears when she remembered whatever had happened during the banquet. She tried to blink them back but General Li had already noticed it.

"Jie\'er, is there something wrong? Do you feel pain anywhere?"

General Li didn\'t even give any chance to his wife to answer his question. Instead, he looked at his daughter and said anxiously.

"Rui, come and check your mother. She doesn\'t seem really well."

Li Rui frowned and was about to get up when Yi Jie shook her head and whispered

"I am alright."

Xi Ying sighed in relief. Though he knew that Yi Jie and General Li were Rui\'s parents, he wished that they would let his wife have her meal peacefully.

She was also a pregnant woman after all. She also needed to eat on time and then have a proper rest. Xi Ying frowned deeply as he was firm now that he will make sure that Rui will have a proper rest.

He didn\'t want her to collapse again.

In fact, they should not have done \'it.\' As much as he enjoyed it and Li Rui was willing, he still didn\'t want this fleeting pleasure to cost him his wife\'s health.

Lord Xi was angry at him and blamed himself inside his heart while General Li asked his wife why she was crying if she was not feeling unwell.

Yi Jie went silent.

She didn\'t wish to bring Li Na, Li Caihong, and Princess Wenling\'s names to the dining table. They have already gotten their punishments.

No matter how much angry she was, she knew that she would have to satisfy her heart with this only.

Also, she knew her daughter very well.

Her daughter was like her. Regardless of who tried to harm her, she would surely not be able to have a proper meal after hearing the news of someone\'s life imprisonment, someone being sent to become a nun in the monastery, and someone being locked inside their chambers.

So she smiled tightly at her husband and said casually

"I was just thinking who poisoned me."

General Li didn\'t doubt his wife\'s words. In fact, he had been thinking the same since last night. Yi Jie\'s words made Li Rui and Xi Ying go into deep thought as well.

Both of them unconsciously looked at each other and Xi Ying held his wife\'s hand under the table indicating that he will manage everything.

He will find out soon who exactly tried to harm Yi Jie.

After all, he had Zhao Wang Lei to help him also this time.

Xi Ying thought inside his heart mockingly.

The atmosphere at the table was a little strange after Yi Jie\'s words and Yi Jie instantly regretted it. To change it, she tried to say something else.

"Lord Xi"

Xi Ying raised his head to look at Yi Jie who had called him out. Yi Jie\'s eyes were filled with gratefulness as she said

"Thanks for letting us stay here."

In fact, this \'thanks\' was not only for letting them stay in Xi Manor. This \'thanks\' Yi Jie gave to Xi Ying because she was happy to see that there was someone to stand for her daughter in front of the Emperor itself.

There was someone to protect her and never let her feel wronged.

Though before she had been afraid Xi Ying\'s favor for Li Rui might be only for some time now Yi Jie believed that she had been wrong.

There were misunderstandings between her daughter and son-in-law before, but now that all the misunderstandings got cleared, Xi Ying would never leave her daughter\'s side. She wished that she was right in what she was thinking.

Xi Ying who had an indifferent face didn\'t feel anything when Yi Jie thanked him. But he knew that he needed to say something polite. After all, Yi Jie was his wife\'s mother.

However, before even he could open his mouth and say something, he heard General Li scoffing in mockery and then saying

"What are you thanking him for, my dear? This manor belongs to our daughter as well."

Yi Jie looked at her husband with helplessness-filled eyes as if pleading with him not to say something that could make Xi Ying upset.

General Li sighed as he held her hand under the table and shut his mouth obediently. However, for the first time, Xi Ying was very happy with General Li\'s words.

This could even be seen on his face itself.

His hold around Li Rui\'s hand tightened unconsciously and he said with a gentle smile on his lips.

"General Li said right, Second Madam Li. This Manor belongs to Rui more than me so there is no need to thank this Lord."

Yi Jie\'s fear vanished immediately and she couldn\'t help but smile at Xi Ying\'s words. General Li arrogantly nodded his head as he said

"Of course. That\'s how you are supposed to behave with my daughter."

Xi Ying ignored General Li this time and picked up a plate to serve the food to his wife.

In response, General Li only heard his wife whisper in his ears.

"Shut up"

General Li obediently shut his mouth.

While Li Rui looked at her husband silently who was now serving the food on a plate, she knew very well for whom!

Xi Manor belongs to Rui more than me…

The words couldn\'t help but ring in her ears making her heart warm for the first time in the last few years.

The cold ice of the winter could only be melted by the warmness of the sun.
